Identifying DNA motifs based on match and mismatch alignment information
نویسندگان
چکیده
The conventional way of identifying DNA motifs, solely based on match alignment information, is susceptible to a high number of spurious sites. A novel scoring system has been introduced by taking both match and mismatch alignment information into account. The mismatch alignment information is useful to remove spurious sites encountered in DNA motif searching. As an example, a correct TATA box site in Homo sapiens H4/g gene has successfully been identified based on match and mismatch alignment information.

Hypercomplex cross-correlation of DNA sequences
A hypercomplex representation of DNA is proposed to facilitate comparing DNA sequences with fuzzy composition. With the hypercomplex number representation, the conventional sequence analysis method, such as, dot matrix analysis, dynamic programming, and cross-correlation method have been extended and improved to align DNA sequences with fuzzy composition. The hypercomplex dot matrix analysis ca...
متن کاملImage Classification via Sparse Representation and Subspace Alignment
Image representation is a crucial problem in image processing where there exist many low-level representations of image, i.e., SIFT, HOG and so on. But there is a missing link across low-level and high-level semantic representations. In fact, traditional machine learning approaches, e.g., non-negative matrix factorization, sparse representation and principle component analysis are employed to d...
متن کاملMolecular and Bioinformatics Analysis of Allelic Diversity in IGFBP2 Gene Promoter in Indigenous Makuee and Lori-Bakhtiari Sheep Breeds
The aim of this study was to perform molecular and bioinformatics analysis of IGFBP2 gene promoter in association with some economic traits in indigenous Makuee (MS) and Lori-Bakhtiari (LB) breeds. DNA was extracted from blood samples of 120 MS and 200 LB and a 297 bp fragment from the upstream sequences of studied gene was amplified and genotyped by single-strand conformational polymo...
متن کاملDNA sequence+shape kernel enables alignment-free modeling of transcription factor binding
Motivation Transcription factors (TFs) bind to specific DNA sequence motifs. Several lines of evidence suggest that TF-DNA binding is mediated in part by properties of the local DNA shape: the width of the minor groove, the relative orientations of adjacent base pairs, etc. Several methods have been developed to jointly account for DNA sequence and shape properties in predicting TF binding affi...
